Irvin chugs a gallon of orange Kool-Aid

“When I say ‘I believe,’ I’m talking about I believe Tebow can get this team to a Super Bowl because there has been in a shift in power in the AFC. It’s shifted to the NFC … We say run the ball, stop the run and don’t turn the ball over. That’s exactly what Tebow is doing right now.”

Make room aboard the Tim Tebow Express for Mike Irvin.

Expect to see a lot of this hyperbole in the next several weeks as the postseason draws near. Tebow makes headlines, and producers will want all of their on-screen talent to start taking an extreme position on him either way.

I saw Irvin say that and you could see the puzzled look on everyone&#8217s face.

I think the Broncos can make the playoffs, but unless Tebow makes that big leap in that final week, I wouldn&#8217t foresee them doing well in the playoffs. Once the run gets stuffed, Tebow isn&#8217t to the point of beating a team, over a full game, with his arm.

Though, if they ran a version of the hurry-up offense in the 2nd quarter, that might be a different story.

I think we can safely assume that the people who believe Tebow&#8217s will is stopping the run are not reading this site.

That said, wasn&#8217t it crazy Irvin that said, &#8220That, right there, is the Son of God&#8221 after watching a Tebow highlight? My face still has a palm print.

If Moses can part the Red Sea, I guess maybe Tebow can stop the run.

@ underdog,

Some Tebow and Broncos&#8217 fans think that Tebow&#8212through his will is in fact, stopping the run.

It&#8217s cool to get some positive vibes for once, though it&#8217s a bit funny or telling that he says: &#8220We say run the ball, stop the run and donât turn the ball over. Thatâs exactly what Tebow is doing right now.&#8221
